The UKBlues Federation is delighted to reveal the fifth contestant who will be taking part in the 5th UKBlues Challenge at Worthing’s Southern Pier on Saturday 8th September 2018.

Carl North & The Lonely Hearts

Chosen by the Jessica Foxley Unsigned Project from the bands who played at the acclaimed Great Rhythm & Blues Festival in Colne over the past weekend, Carl North & the Lonely Hearts formed in 2016 since when they have been busy generating their own kind of buzz within Manchester's live circuit.

In their first year alone, multi-instrumentalist North fronted The Lonely Hearts alongside a number of traditional giants, including Andrew Combs, Gill Landry, Matt Andersen & C.W. Stoneking. In 2017, following a successful summer of festival appearances which included playing at Glastonbury, the end of the year saw the five-piece release their debut single 'Worst Of You', accompanied by a smash sell-out inaugural headline performance. Plans to perform nationwide are on the horizon with tour and festival dates to be announced.
